ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background

Laparoscopic surgery has become a common surgical method for clinical treatment of intra-abdominal lesions.

Research motivation

This study explored the role and influence of butorphanol in patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) lumbar spine block after general anesthesia gynecological surgery.

Research objectives

To explore the possible application prospect of butorphanol in PCIA lumbar block after general anesthesia gynecological surgery.

Research methods

The investigation was conducted on 120 female patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery in our hospital from May 2017 to May 2020.

Research results

The serum tumor necrosis factor-α levels of the research group 24 h postoperatively were significantly lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The levels of serum interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 in the study group 24 h and 48 h postoperatively were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).

Research conclusions

PCIA lumbar block with butorphanol after general anesthesia and gynecological surgery can significantly improve the analgesic effect.

Research perspectives

Quadratus lumborum block combined with butorphanol postoperative PCIA has significantly better analgesic effects and may be more widely used.
